Research
Because we believe research is vital to cultivating critical thinkers, analytical learners and global-minded citizens.
TCU’s College of Science & Engineering is where open doors open minds. We offer personalized, rigorous instruction with an emphasis on undergraduate research that is unique among national universities.
